 Skagen Men's Titanium Mesh Band Watch #530LTMB By: Skagen Average Rating: 3.5 Total Reviews: 20 More Information An exquisite watch- the perfect gift  On: 2007-08-13Thats a great watch. Was looking for a gift for my BF and there it was. It looks stylish and it works brilliantly. Couldnt be more happy for my choice! A Good Looking Watch.  On: 2007-07-17Simple response, This is a nice looking, comfortable and stylish watch. It works in a casual and professional setting. I made a great coice in its purchase. Skagen scores again On: 2007-07-07This is my third Skagen watch. (I tend to break crystals and bands in my line of work). I love the thin case and the very classy looks. This is a secondary watch for me, its dressier than my daily watch, so its for special occasions. Highly recommend Skagen. Black Titaniun watch #530ltmb On: 2007-06-02Another additional Skagen product. Love their style and design. Very pleased with quality,and price. Almost 1/2 cost of purchasing locally. Will be purchasing more in near future. Nice watch On: 2007-05-10This watch is stylish and comfortable.. It was a bargain compared to local stores as well... looks great On: 2007-05-10This is a very neat dress watch. I recommend it, despite the comments below. It is a bit smaller than I expected, but was very good value. I may look for something a bit chunkier for sporty outings. The hands and date are easy to read despite the plain dial. The quartering on the dial looks good. I managed to adjust the timne and date without reading the instructions Difficulties? I struggled to adjust the strap - you need a screwdriver and a good grasp of engineering and the manual is not much use. I initially got the clasp on backwards and also had a lot of difficulty closing the clips. Then when I had the strap the right length I found it quite hard to do the bracelet up. If you buy this (and I hope you will) do practice over a table and do not have the strap very tight - it wont do up like that. poor construction  On: 2007-03-26I loved this watch. It looks cool, its weightless on, it seemed durable, and Ive recieved a bunch of compliments. The problem that Ive had is that the crystal broke without provocation. I never hit it on anything or dropped the watch, I just woke up one day and it had two big cracks that run through the center of the face. I have had this watch for less than 3 months. To make it worse I had another one just like it right before this one and the same thing happened in less than two weeks. I thought that the first was a lemon or something and liked everything about the watch, except what had happened, so I choose an even exchange. Wrong choice. The titanium is strong, but the crystal is week. My advice is: DO NOT BUY THIS WATCH. dont be charmed by its style or seemingly strong construction. I should also say that Ive gone back to the swatch that Ive had for about 6 years now, which has never had any problems. i mention this only to compair the durability of crystals in the two products and to note that the crystal cracked during normal use, not agrivated. I LOVE THIS WATCH!!! LOOKS EVERYWHERE!!! On: 2007-03-26If youve never had a Skagen, i recomend it!!! I LOVE this watch!! I can wear it with a suite, or with jeans and tshirt, and looks great!! Its super slim so it doesnt interfere with my cufflings. ITS A MUST HAVE FOR WATCHES!! If you're looking for a durable watch, this model is *NOT* for you.. On: 2007-03-06Selecting Skagen, I thought I was buying a quality watch... Far from that. It may look beautiful, but in a week or so after you start wearing it, its black polish starts to fade, leaving awful white patches.. What is more, the little mails that compose the mesh have began to loosen on the creases...The closing mechanism is so badly designed, that the watch spontaneusly falls off from the hand all the time. A total disappointment and a waste of money. If you're looking for a durable watch, this model is *NOT* for you.. On: 2007-03-05Selecting Skagen, I thought I was buying a quality watch...

Skagen Men's Black Titanium Watch  On: 2007-01-30About a month ago, I purchased this watch from Amazon way below cost...and I know why: The black stainless mesh band is already fading, the hardened crystal is already scratched, and the knob to adjust the date does not work. Other than that, the watch looks great! It's almost impossible to snap closed the clasp On: 2006-09-29Pro: Its a sleeky watch with a reasonable price. Con: The mesh band is by no means "easily adjustable." Once you have lifted up the clasp, you cannot snap it closed, at least not without a screwdriver and a hammer. Both my original purchase and the replacement had this same problem, so Id guess that the whole series is defective. Great Buy - Recommend Strongly On: 2006-04-02The watch is sleek and looks elegant for the price i paid. Looks like a Expensive watch. skagen watch On: 2006-03-07Very good price, speedy service, and nice watch-so far have not seen problems with paint peeling as others have listed. Paint Comes Off  On: 2005-08-27Within 2 days of receiving this nice-looking watch, the paint on the clasp and some on the mesh band flaked off, leaving strips of dull gray next to the nice black color on the band. This totally ruins the look of the watch. Any ideas on what kinds of paint I could use to replace the paint that flaked off? Looks cheap On: 2005-08-15I got this Skagen online thinking that it looked like a nice, expensive watch as a reasonable price (as the reviews also pointed out). I was disappointed after receiving the watch however, as the mesh band looks like a cheap nylon band, even relatively close up. Although I like the idea of a smaller watch, the face looked very small on my wrist especially with the wide mesh band. I returned this watch for a refund and learned that you have to try before you buy. A Fine Watch On: 2005-04-01I only have had this watch for a few days now. I like it quite a bit. Very stylish and unobtrusive - features I was looking for in a mans watch. And quite thin, the best feature. I wish sooooo much that "Mens Watches" werent so big and bulky and they made more like this one. Im very pleased with the quality and design of this watch. Nice watch!!! but I have a better one On: 2004-01-05Overall, this is a nice Skagen, but unfortunatly it wasnt as thin as I wanted it to be. I have a different skagen that is way thinner than this one. If you are a starter, by all means get this watch. but if you like Really thin, dont go for this watch Another Great Skagen Watch On: 2003-12-22This watch is great - as have all my Skagen watches been. It is beautiful to look at, light weight, and a good size. The only negative about this is that Skagen has started to move to the fine mesh bands. Having not owned one of them before, I didnt realize that unless you have the band just at the right size the mesh will pull at the hair on your wrist (no matter how little). Were it not for this I would give it a five. So spend a few minutes sizing the band just right and you wont have a problem and youll have a watch that catches your eye as well as others. A high end watch with a realistic price. On: 2003-12-18I love Skagens, I have 3 now and planning to buy another one. The one I have is exactly the same but has a grey brushed face. It is smart and expensive looking, durable, clean and tough. The trend these days is big and way too overdesigned. Skagen stands out by being smaller, simple and clean. which is fine with me since when I have bigger watches I tend to hit them on everything and break or scratch the crystals. Get one youll love it. Great watch! by: Anonymous On: 2003-11-23 The crystal doesnt scratch, even though I wear it as an every day watch. |
